Sunday Musings - Recharging my batteries

Brighton Beach South Australia

This morning when I awoke, I decided on a whim to go to the beach for an early morning walk. The nearest beach from my home is about 25 minutes drive away at Brighton. 

Now I don't mean Brighton UK, I mean Brighton near Adelaide in South Australia. Not as large or as historical as the UK one, but nice all the same.

I've got it!

There were quite a few other people there too, enjoying the early morning, fresh air and the sea. Walking, jogging, swimming and playing with their dogs. A lovely way to start a Sunday.

Sunday is a good day for recharging your batteries. To relax and have some fun, ready for the next busy week.

It can be a time to get away from the computer, ipad and even the phone. Yes, it is possible to have a day without these things. To have a day when you switch everything off and do something different.

So give yourself a break from technology. After all, those of us that lived before mobile phones, computers etc were invented lived quite well without them. 

My suggestion for today is: get out into the fresh air and enjoy the beauty that nature provides. You will be glad, like me, that you did.
